    Anyone else annoyed by the new Eurosport Player? I like the general lay-out, but not the way it works. They changed the 30 second jumps to 15, meaning I'm doubleclicking all the time, the 15 second jumps load way slower than the 30 second jumps used to do, the buttons for the jumps and pause are right in the middle of the screen instead of neatly at the bottom and the overlay stays for an annoyingly long time (especially when skipping ahead since the buttons are in the middle of the video).

    The real fans.

    Still better than moving it to Sapporo.

    Can't be an avid everything, that's alright

    That jump into the second turn is going to cause trouble.

    That comparison What I meant is for example Meyers Taylor and Maier/Vathje have had their names like that for a while now, it's not a secret and almost impossible to miss their relationships when watching those sports. Anyway, nothing out of the ordinary.
  8. heywoodu
    All of those mentioned recently were in their current relationships well before Pyeongchang if I'm not mistaken
  9. heywoodu
    Neither does a sport where they barely touch each other

    No Elisabeth Maier (Vathtje) this winter, since she's expected to give birth in December. https://www.ibsf.org/en/news/9-skeleton/21262-baby-break-for-skeleton-athlete-elisabeth-vathje

    Chris Spring will sit out the next season. https://www.ibsf.org/en/news/8-bobsleigh/21320-bobsleigh-pilot-chris-spring-takes-2019-2020-season-off Same for Elana Meyers Taylor, but unlike Spring, she is pregnant. https://www.ibsf.org/en/news/8-bobsleigh/21292-baby-break-for-olympic-silver-medallist-elana-meyers-taylor

    Three individual time trials by the way (although only one of them is not a short one). That last week is going to be brutal again.

    Oh boy, the Giro is going to be in Hungary close to Slovakia? Isn't that the area where there's a bit of....trouble? I'm always confused about this thing.
  14. heywoodu
    At least some Polish hills shouldn't be too far away I guess, that's something. Him doing this at age 12 shows he has some potential indeed, hopefully it helps in getting some sort of support from somewhere, outside Slovakia if needed.

    That's why there are block functions, or you know, ignoring options in real life

    I often disagree when blaming federations, but not here...it's hardly their fault when a country goes to shit and cancelling an event so shortly before it's planned isn't always a great plan neither..

    Only people who say they are religious but don't actually care pretend to find it important for their religion to be the biggest I mean, believe what you want, who cares how many others believe the same.

    It's been a while since I had a new ski jumper to cheer for, let's go Hektor

    It's a little sad to see there's not a single Dutch athlete trying qualification. Even Liechtenstein tries in three (!) events, come on. I'm a little too lazy to check, but I thought they at least have one who is pretty promising, but I might be wrong.
  20. heywoodu
    Also no Sandra Robatscher in at least the first half of the season, due to injury. https://www.fil-luge.org/de/news/sandra-robatscher-verpasst-erste-saisonhaelfte

    Like so many sports, speed skating really doesn't need a mixed relay. Or in this case it doesn't even need a relay at all. There's already the team pursuit and the bullshit team sprint.
  22. heywoodu
    When have we joked about a third tier? I'd be in favour of it, if it's mostly continental, that's no joke.

    Green light for Sölden https://www.fis-ski.com/en/alpine-skiing/alpine-news-multimedia/news-multimedia/news/test2/let-the-games-begin-in-solden

    Isn't that exactly what he said?
  25. heywoodu
    I feel like ITG usually just focusses on news like the Beninese Boccia Federation having elections for their new vice-president in a few months, re-posting results from events they're at without really any information about how the competitions actually went ("A won gold, B won silver and C won bronze, his 3rd medal ever") and so on, instead of deep investigative stuff
